Chris tailors the lesson to exactly what I need. He is excellent at combining a good review of skills and challenging me with more difficult tasks. I always know I will leave the lesson with lots to think about and work on. I highly recommend Chris!

We had a fantastic intro class with Chris. His teaching style was very comfortable and versatile. Going in depth where we needed and keeping pace up for review. We are very energized to continue learning German from him.
